So the past couple days I noticed that Noot is suddenly passing whole BSFL in his poop... a couple were even alive! That was... well, horrific, and I'd hoped it was just a one-time occurrence, but it keeps happening now (thankfully no more live ones). It is still a typical color for him, and not runny. I am hoping it's just that he's outgrown his current size of worm and is just not chewing them properly anymore, but idk. I know I'll probably have to get a fecal done, but in the meantime I thought I'd ask for advice here
Temps
Basking: 102-106f depending
Warm side: 85-87f
Cool side: 77-79f
measured with digital probe
UVB
Reptisun T5 10.0 tube, about 8 inches above
Substrate
reptile carpet
Diet
BSFL (staple)
turnip greens and cilantro when he is so inclined
rare fruit or baby food treats
A few other notes:
My reptisun is about 6 months old at this point. I read frequently that the UVB should be replaced every 6 months, but the box says every 12 months. I'm not so sure what to do, but if it needs to be replaced I'll just go buy one tomorrow after work
His cage got quite dirty this past week (shamefully) due to me basically doing nothing but working and sleeping all week. It's clean now, and I'm back to a normal work schedule, but I am worried that it was like that.
He is still eating normally and alert and active. I have ordered some larger bsfl to see if it is a chewing issue
Thanks
